EXPERIMENTAL AND THEORETICAL STUDY OF THE PROCESSES OF COMBUSTION OF EMULSIONS AND SUSPENSIONS OF LIQUID AND SOLID HYDROCARBONS WITH WATER
要約
The water present in hydrocarbon fuels, as well as its vapor in air or other oxidants, have a significant impact on the behavior of various physical and chemical processes occurring in them, including the direct effects associated with combustion. Notably, this occurs both in the normal combustion reactions of organic and inorganic substances, and in the case of mixing of solid and liquid hydrocarbon fuels with water. A lot of experimental evidence concerning the influence of water on the occurring processes have been accumulated, which have not yet found an explanation. It turned out that in this case, the main influence is exerted by vibrational excitation of H2O molecules in the liquid and gaseous phases. This paper describes the physical and quantum-mechanical processes proceeding in the formation of emulsions and suspensions by mixing liquid and powdered solid hydrocarbon fuels with liquid water, and the phenomena of their combustion in the atmospheric air. Experimental data on successful creation of such mixtures and significant improvement of the hydrocarbon fuels combustion efficiency are described. An explanation is given for the basic phenomena occurring during the formation of emulsions and suspensions, as well as during the combustion processes.
